Fix Trailing Slash bug?

-> The fix trailing slash feature results in a redirect to an ugly URL.
->
-> For example, I've got Apache directing http://www.orbtech.com/web/ to my
-> Quixote cgi program. If I let Quixote fix a trailing slash, such as
-> http://www.orbtech.com/web/pobrien, I get redirected to
-> http://www.orbtech.com/cgi-bin/web.py/pobrien/ instead of
-> http://www.orbtech.com/web/pobrien/.
->
-> I like pretty URLs. I also like fixing trailing slashes for users. The two
-> appear to be incompatible. Is this a bug?

I think this is an Apache problem, not a Quixote problem.  Have you tried
using rewrite rules instead of redirection?

Quixote can hardly be blamed for listening to the Web server about URLs ;).
